Anyone got any good resources for a 'solidworks 101' type thing? I want to design a range of simple automotive products to be cnc machined out of polyoxymethylene.

RQ, whats your thoughts on a separate greywater system for a house? I looked at setting one up when building mine, but the drainage designer and council both thought it wouldn't work...

Aquire a copy and go through the tutorials, see how you go, you'd have a pretty good understanding of these software packages to start with (photoshop, cads etc.) so that'll give you a good start. |

I'd say that a decent primary settlement tank with scum and sludge scraper would work wonders, have the scum and sludge either treated on drying beds for fert (bit more $$ outlay) or dispose of it traditionally useing field tiles or a simple wetland hydro system (wetland plants growing in a porous media with the effluent trickled through it for nutrients) Failing that, dump it to sanitary sewer if you don't have the land. The volume dumped to SS would be reduced by 80-90%. The treated grey water could then be re-used for showering, laundry, toilet flushing and general duty around the house, i'd be debious about re-using it as a drinking water without a tetiary treatment like UV or disc filters at the least. The set up costs, other than the treatment process, would be double what was normal, as you'd literally need twice as many pipes. Outlay would be fairly pricey, but i think NZ should get behind it, its a really good idea. IMHO. Last edited by Reformed_Quint : 12th March 2010 at 10:33. |

I remember looking at these guys www.ebode.co.nz when I was thinking of building; they offer it as part of their package.

it amazes me that people assume that "rain" equals overcast from horizon to horizon and for the rest of the region that they live in. i was once watching discrete thunderstorm cells spawning in the hauraki gulf from atop mt eden, on an otherwise cloudless night, and a number of people came up to my group and asked "what is that!?". when we said thunderstorms, they couldnt believe us.. "but its not raining here!". nuff said. Last edited by Vrtigo : 12th March 2010 at 11:41. |

Since learning that the dashboard of my car has a little arrow showing which side the petrol cap is on (and in other cases which way the pump diagram is facing), I have lost the ability to remember which side it is on and have to check every single time I drive up to a petrol station. Might of course be early onset of dementia.

Well I thought the theory was that the handle was on the side that the cap was on - but I might be wrong... My car has the handle facing one way and an arrow pointing the other way. The arrow in this case is right.

Good thing my dashboard has an arrow
I just had a telemarketing call from I think the first Australian I have ever had any trouble at all understanding. We got there in the end though. |

Would have been interesting to try, not even to reuse, but reduce the load on the septic, and use for watering garden etc. Final plan that we came up with is everything into Septic > Siphon > Sand Filter > Siphon > Irrigated to plantings. Email (in profile) me if you'd like details, interested in your feedback. |

Wellington is not ok. A storm has just hit with such ferocity that I thought a tornado had hit. The wind is probably up there with the strongest I've felt. That being said, I love stormy weather...as long as I don't have to leave the house.
